It can be used to perform vertical lookups on any column and horizontal lookups on any row, based on percentage or sound similarity.
It can also be used to highlight or delete duplicate values by sound or percentage similarity.
Pros: Flookup makes working with unsorted, uncleaned or even clean data much easier
Cons: It doesn't work offline
